Award-Winning Tutors serving Scarsdale, NY

...two years and then was hired for two years as a classroom intern at Horizons at Greens Farms Academy, a summer program for underserved youth in my community. Through this program, I was responsible for teaching reading, writing, and math to first graders. As an intern, I ran a small reading group and worked through the program's literacy intervention program by creating my own worksheets and activities to engage the students with their reading. Last...

...LSAT three times through self-study and previously taught LSAT classes through a large test prep company. I understand what it is like to struggle through the LSAT and come out on the other side successful. Through teaching I have learned how to help students carve their own path to success and look forward to helping students recognize their academic strengths and address test challenges. As a writing teacher, I focus on helping students to write...

Hi everyone! I'm delighted to have the opportunity to help you. I tutor in math, including algebra, stats, and calculus; business subjects including finance, economics, and accounting; and in fiction and non-fiction writing. I have a BA from Loyola University of Chicago, a MBA from Vanderbilt University, and a MFA from Sarah Lawrence College. I can't wait to help you.

...the most exciting way possible. I promise to instill a love of learning within your children. I love school, but it wasn't always that way. I struggled with reading and writing as a kid, and math was a whole different story. However, I battled through these struggles to become a straight A student in college (at Bowdoin, an elite NESCAC school in Brunswick, ME). Because of my personal issues with school, I know better than...

...helping students succeed, and I am patient and enjoy walking through multiple methods to help a student find what works best for them. I enjoy helping students reach their potential. While I tutor a range of subjects, I am most interested in and best equipped to tutor students in SAT prep (math, English, and test-taking strategies), history, economics, and statistics. In my spare time, I am likely watching baseball, playing basketball, or watching The Office.

Hi there! My name is Erica. I graduated from Columbia University, where I studied the intersection of popular culture and politics. I like to write about comedy, dance, and New York arts and culture. I would love to share my enthusiasm for US history, social justice, and semicolons with students!

...down complicated and difficult assignments into manageable tasks and goals. I am committed to helping students fully comprehend and understand the information they need to learn. This is because I believe students perform best in school when they understand concepts instead of using memorization, which does not provide a stable foundation for more complex work in the future. I love working with young people and helping them to link their coursework to their own personal...

...if you put in the time and effort, you can reach your fullest potential. I want to make studying as fun as it can possibly be (and it is fun when you are actually understanding what you're learning!) "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act, but a habit." Aristotle During my free time, I love to bake and cook. But if you're going to eat as many sweets as me,...

...teaching I enjoy traveling, eating new foods and binge watching on Netflix. On top of teaching and tutoring, I have a small skincare line primarily consisting of natural body products. I went to SUNY Buffalo State and received a Bachelors of Art in Communication Studies and a Masters of Science in Creativity and Change Leadership. I later on went to RELAY Graduate School where I obtained a Masters of Arts in Teaching.

...not be where I am today without trusted adults such as teachers, faculty, and staff being there for me within the safe space of my institutions. I am most passionate about English, African-American History, Literature, Public Speaking, Journalism, Creative Writing, and Drama. I am also a proud mental health advocate and was previously Mental Health First Aid certified for both adults and children. I have had the opportunity to speak at conferences, consortiums, symposiums, and...

...language proficiency. That being said, in previous experiences teaching younger students and fellow peers, I make sure to tailor my teaching style to the individual. Whether you are a auditory learner, a visual learner, kinesthetic learner or you learn through other methods, I will make sure to teach you in a way that is best fit for you. After discussing what your main goal is, I will come up with a curriculum that I feel...

...five years now and I enjoy it very much. I took quite a few AP classes in high school, so I understand how fast-paced some classes are and how overwhelming that can be for the student. I believe in spending the extra time to make sure that the student understands the new or difficult concepts so that he/she can feel confident in the subject and in himself/herself before we move on. I strive to create...

...one of my favorite tutoring experiences came when I participated in a program where I helped Italian students in Rome with their conversational English skills, preparing them for exams. Outside of tutoring and school, I try to live an active lifestyle - I love to run, and you'll often find me playing pickup basketball and soccer. Otherwise, in my free time I have worked for the Stanford Daily, a student newspaper, as both a writer...

...group how to properly perform lab procedures, analyze large data sets, and write grant proposals. I have always enjoyed learning new things and gaining a deeper understanding of topics that I am already familiar with. Tutoring has enabled me to provide a valuable service to others, while simultaneously helping me to become a better scientist and researcher in the process. I derive great satisfaction from helping students achieve their goals and my commitment to their...

...teaching Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry and Trigonometry. To achieve the competence in Math, I always reinforce this: discipline, observation, hard work, motivation, ask questions, critical thinking, imagination, and believe in oneself. By doing that, I have been learning Mathematics, and I am able to have time for my personal life, doing activities such listening to music, learning another language, watch movies, visiting families and friends, going to the beach, among other recreational activities.

...to local high school students. We discussed the text both as literature and performance; this opened up the language, made it accessible, and fun! I will be tutoring in Literature and writing amongst other similar subjects. I love literature because it can open up new worlds. Within the pages of a novel, a person is exposed to character and history. So much is wrapped up in a book's binding. I love yoga, coffee, galavanting in...

...my undergraduate studies. This was when I received a true taste for the satisfaction obtained by empowering others through education. Currently, I'm working as a Physical Therapist Aide as I prepare for graduate school. My position as an Aide is allowing me to further my knowledge in regards to Health Sciences and Anatomy/Physiology, which I hope to transfer on to my students. In my free time I enjoy surfing (in the freezing cold NY waters),...

...free time, I love having conversations with my friends and students, reading, dancing, listening to music, and hanging out with my younger sisters. My mission is to work my hardest to make learning and tutoring truly fun, so that it doesn't feel like a chore or obligation for anyone. I would love to work with you on SAT preparation, math tutoring, history tutoring, writing tutoring, or any other subject you would like to work on!

...hands-on activities that have helped them gain a deeper understanding of the material, such as engaging with virtual simulations that illustrate important physical concepts and coding an interactive game that requires user input. I understand that different students learn differently and require different types of encouragement and support, and I would personalize my lessons to meet each student's needs. I believe that it is important to make learning STEM subjects fun, and I do my...
